A 130-year-old statue erected in Richmond, Virginia was removed Monday.
The monument of General A.P. Hill was the last Confederate statue left under the ownership of the city, though other state-owned Confederate moments remain.
Unlike other statues that Richmond began removing during the 2020 George Floyd protests, there were delays in its removal because Hill’s monument was also where the Confederate army official was buried.
